What is FuseSoc?
FuseSoC is a package manager…
...and a build tool for HDL
What is FuseSoc?
FuseSoC is a package manager… ...and a build tool for HDL
Why use FuseSoc?
Increase portability
Reduce maintenance
“Focus on your core business, not your cores”
FuseSoC isthe most used package manager
non-intrusive
modular
extendable
resourceful
battle-proven
Case : Target different tools
fusesoc run --target=sim serv
uses default simulator
fusesoc run --target=sim --tool=modelsim serv fusesoc run --target=sim --tool=xsim serv
No changes needed.
Some tool-specific setting needed

Edalize
Tomorrow● Generators
● Formal verification
● Use flags
Future● Librecores integration
● Edalize everywhere
● Industry standard - World domination
